West Side Story and The Hunger Games: Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes star Rachel Zegler to play Evita!
Andrew Lloyd Webber's renowned musical Evita returns to the West End this summer at the Palladium. Tony Nominee Jamie Lloyd's revival premiered at 2019's Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, stunning audiences with its new and thrilling take on the classic, incorporating modern-day touches, twerking, spray cans, ticker tape, and more. Fabian Aloise's choreography brings a new twist to beloved songs, such as the adored "Don't Cry For Me Argentina", "Another Suitcase in Another Hall" and more, sure to leave you singing and dancing all the way home!
What's It About?
Based on a true story, the people of Argentina mourn the loss of their First Lady Eva Peron. A citizen, who looks upon Eva in a different, less adoring light, takes it upon himself to tell the story of Evita, with the intention of proving her inadequacy.
